Kumail Nanjiani

was amazing, great ensemble cast and rolling laughter. just a spectacular night of comedy

So first off, the idea of doing a standup comedy tour to support a movie is a fantastic idea, and I'm sure would not be possible for a lot of big names due to scheduling conflicts. It was great that they could make it happen here and would love to see it with more indie flicks. Kurt Braunohler opened and was hilarious. Would love to see him again with more material. The room was ready to laugh so he got a good reception from the audience, but it'd be a shame to have him have to start with a cold crowd, and he really should have been #2. Aidy Bryant was bad. Boston was the first stop on the tour and she started her set by saying she'd never done a standup tour before, which was immediately evident once she started telling jokes. Like a lot of SNL folks, I assume her background is in improv, and she just was really unpolished as a standup comic. She at one point did an interactive audience participation bit that showed off her improv chops. It was amusing, but was the strongest part of a weak set. Ray Romano came up next and was genuinely pretty funny for someone I still associate closely with his schlocky unfunny network sitcom. I don't think he was up on the stage for more than 20 minutes, but would have loved to hear more from him. Kumail came up last and was fantastic, but again, couldn't have been up for more than 30-35 minutes. I was hoping for an hour or more from him. After he ran through his material he invited his real life wife up on stage who co-wrote The Big Sick, and they did a short Q&A together with the audience. I didn't really feel like this added much. I don't think we were in our seats for 90 minutes, and for how much tickets cost, I can't honestly say I got my money's worth, despite 3 of 4 comedians varying between funny and hilarious.

Was really excited for this show because of all the talent involved. The show I saw was Kumail, Ray Romano, Kurt Braunholer and Aidy Bryant. Four comedians gave us a total of about an hour of standup and another 10 minutes of Q&A about the movie. For the price I paid, that's just unacceptable. I was expecting and paid for two hours, not one. However, what we did get was very good and very funny.

What a lineup! Such a great show. I knew I had to buy these tickets as soon as it was announced. All four comedians were stellar!

Excellent! All super talented! I had the best time.

Didn't really know what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised by how much fun this was. Every comedian was hysterical and the Q&A section was adorable.

Its clear that Kumail is a fantastic comedian through his shows and material he has released, but to see him live is an even better experience. He used a lot of crowd interaction and was extremely funny the entire night. My girlfriend and I laughed nonstop.

Compelling, engaged, raw, lively, spirited, playful, and adept, Kumail Nanjiani engages even a large audience in an intimately personal way, delighting with humorous anecdotes, observations, and more.

Knew of Kumail and Jonah because of their podcasts, and was not disappointed at all by their hilarious comedy.

Kumail and Jonah put on a terrific live comedy show. It had them working in tandem and doing part of their solo acts. It had old and (mostly) new material. It had some workshopping too. And audience participation. These two shine when interacting with their fans and that was absolute proof. Highly recommended.

Kumail Nanjiani is hilarious -- don't miss him! Mario DiGiorgio was also excellent. A fantastic evening!
